According to the Dallas Morning News and the Associated Press:
“Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says a federal prosecutor has been assigned to look for ways to help tackle the problems associated with polygamy in Southwestern states. In a letter sent Monday to Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff and Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard, Reid says the justice department can strengthen efforts to combat crime within polygamous groups. “
The Nevada Democrat says he’s also asked top state and federal law enforcement officers in his state to get involved.
